10. At all times relevant hereto, Spotts and his wife Elizabeth were in the plumbing
excavation business and operated a business known as Mel Spotts Excavation. Spotts maintains a
business address at 45 Martin Street, East Earl, Pennsylvania.
II. In or about 1994, Orchard Hills was the owner of a mobile home park known as
"Pocono Village Court" or "Pocono Mobile Home Park" (the "Park") located in Pocono Township,
Monroe County, Pennsylvania.
12. Sewage disposal for the mobile homes located in the Park was provided by means of
a septic system located on the Park premises.
13. On or before August, 1994, Orchard Hills hired Spotts to perform repairs on the Park's
septic system.
14, Spotts performed the work between August, 1994 and December, 1994.
15. In or about December, 1994, in the course of his work Spotts cut one of the septic
system's gravity feed pipes. This pipe was connected to a dosing tank, and after it was cut, sewage
which was supposed to pass through the pipe into the tank instead was released into the ground in and
around the Park.
16. Spotts completed his work at the Park in December, 1994.
17. At sometime subsequent to December, 1994, it was discovered that sewage had
escaped from the septic system and had contaminated the ground in and around the parle
18. Orchard Hills and Pocono Village commenced suit against Spotts in September, 1997
in the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. Orchard Hills and Pocono
Village filed a Complaint against Spotts in this suit in or about March, 1998 and an Amended
3
~I
"'",
~ I
Complaint in or about July, 1999. (the "Complaint" and "Amended Complaint") Copies of the
Complaints are attached hereto as Exhibit "B".
19. The Complaints allege that Spotts performed his work at the Park in a negligent
careless and reckless fashion and that Orchard Hills and Pocono Village were damaged as a result.
20. In particular, the Amended Complaint alleges that Spotts "cut off a gravity feed pipe
or line which connected eleven (11) mobile homes to a "dosing tank" without reconnecting that line
to any other part of the septic system. As a result of this action, the sewage which emanated from
those eleven (11) mobile homes was not deposited into the septic system for the mobile home park
and was simply dumped into the ground". Amended Complaint, paragraph 8.a., Exhibit "B" hereto.
21. The Amended Complaint further alleges that Spotts acts "caused the untreated waste
from eleven (11) mobile homes to simply pass into the ground" and that this "violated federal and
state environmental laws and the ordinances of Pocono Township in Monroe County and exposed the
owners and representatives of Orchard Hills to criminal and civil penalties and sanctions for such
violations." Amended Complaint, paragraph 9, attached hereto as Exhibit "B".
22. The Amended Complaint seeks damages representing the cost of repairing and/or
remedying Spotts' allegedly defective work (including costs incurred in identifying the source ofthe
problem) and treating and removing soil in the Park that had been contaminated with untreated
sewage.
COUNT I -- DECLARATORY JUDGMENT--POLICY COVERAGE
23, Penn National incorporates by reference the averments of paragraphs I through 22
hereof as if fully set forth at length herein.
4
"I
I
II
24. The Penn National policies provide coverage for sums Spotts is legally obligated to
pay on account of "property damage", as defined in the policies, which is not otherwise excluded.
See General Liability Coverage Form, attached hereto as Exhibit "C".
25. The Penn National policies exclude from coverage "property damage" to real property
on which the Spotts is performing operations, or personal property that must be "restored, repaired
or replaced" because Spotts' work was incorrectly performed on it (See CG 00 01 01 96, Section I,
Coverage A.2.J(5), 2.1(6), at 3). The Penn National policies also exclude coverage for "property
damage" to Spotts' "work" as defined in the policies. (See CG 00 0 I 01 96, Section 1., Coverage
A.2.1, at 4).
26. The claims asserted in the Complaint and Amended Complaint fall within the ambit
of the exclusions cited in the preceding paragraph and therefore are not covered under the Penn
National policies.
27. In addition, the Penn National policies contain a Total Pollution Exclusion which
provides that the "property damage" coverage does not apply to claims which would not have
occurred in whole or in part but for the discharge, dispersal, seepage, migration, release or escape of
"pollutants". "Pollutants" means any solid, liquid, gaseous, or thermal initant or contaminant
including smoke, vapor, soot, fumes, acid, alkali, chemicals and waste. (See CG 21 4901 96)
28. The claims asserted in the Complaint and Amended Complaint fall within the ambit
of the Total Pollution Exclusion and therefore there is no coverage for these claims under the Penn
National policies.
5
~f
',-.."
[,
,
,
29. An actual controversy exists between the parties concerning the issue of whether
Spotts is entitled to coverage under the policies for the claims asserted in the Complaint and Amended
Complaint.
30. Declaratory judgment is the only remedy by which the liabilities of the parties can be
determined.
WHEREFORE, Pennsylvania National Mutual Casualty Insurance Company demands
judgment in its favor and against defendants as follows:
a. A declaration that under the terms of the Policies and applicable law, Penn
National has neither a duty to defend nor a duty to indemnifY Spotts for the claims asserted in the
Complaint and Amended Complaint; and
b. For such other and furtherreliefthis Court may deem just and proper, including
attorneys' fees and cost of suit.
COUNT II - REIMBURSEMENT OF ATTORNEYS FEES AND COSTS
31. Penn National adopts by reference the allegations of the preceding paragraphs and
incorporates the same herein as if fully set forth at length.
32. Penn National is presently defending Spotts against the claims asserted in the Complaintand
Amended Complaint pursuant to a reservation of its right to contest its obligations under its policies.
33. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Policies, Penn National is only obligated to
defend Spotts against claims which are actually or potentially covered under the Policies.
34. In the event that this Court enters a declaration that Penn National has no duty to defend
Spotts against the claims asserted in the Complaint and Amended Complaint, Pelill National is
entitled to recoup the fees and costs it has paid on Spotts' behalf in defense of the claims.

WHEREFORE, Pennsylvania National Mutual Casualty Company demands judgment in its
favor and against defendants as follows:
(a) An order directing Spotts to reimburse Penn National for all fees
and costs incurred by Penn National in defending Spotts against the claims asserted in the Complaint
and Amended Complaint and;
(b) For such other and further relief this Court may deem just and
proper, including attorneys' fees and cost of suit.

3. The Defendant, Mel Spotts, is an adult individual who, to the best of Plaintiffs'
knowledge, resides or maintains an office at 45 Martin Street in East Earl, Pennsylvania.
4. In 1994 Orchard Hills owned a Mobile Home Park situate in Pocono Township,
. . I. , .
Monroe County I Pennsylvania, which Mobile Home Park was known variously as "Pocono
Village Court" or "Pocono Village Mobile Home Park" and which was Improved with
facilities for 32 mobile homes, which facilities were leased to tenants and which facilities
included a septic system to lawfully dispose of sewer and other wastes on the property.
5. In 1994 and at all other times relevant to this action, Defendant was engaged in
the business of excavation and plumbing work and held himself out to Orchard Hills and its
representatives, and to various other members of the public, as an expert in such work.
6. During the summer and fall of 1994, Orchard Hills engaged Defendant Spotts to
do certain work on the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park. During the process of that
engagement, representatives of Orchard Hills and Spotts took the fallowing actions:
a. Spotts visited the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park to inspect the
problem; and
b. Spotts determined what work was necessary to correct the problem
and make the improvements which Orchard Hills requested; and
c. Spotts met with representatives of Orchard Hills at offices they
maintained at that time at 4740 Delbrook Road in Mechanicsburg,
Pennsylvania, to discuss the work he proposed to do, to explain to Orchard

Hills' representatives how that work would correct the problems at Pocono
Village Mobile Horne Park, and to propose payment terms for the work he
""\','
was to do.
engaged Spotts to do work on the septic and sewer system at the Pocono Village Mobile
Home Park. The terms of the engagement were that Spotts would do the work he had
verbally described to the representatives of Orchard Hills in a good and workmanlike
manner, in exchange for which Orchard Hills would pay Spotts his normal and customary
charges, on a time and material basis, for such work. Although no formal written
agreement was prepared between the parties. Brian Gross, one of the principals in Peifer
& Gross, Inc. who represented Orchard Hills at the meetings with Spotts, prepared a
Memorandum outlining the nature of the work to be done and said Memorandum was
signed by representatives of Orchard Hills and by Spotts, A copy of that Memlllrandum is
attached hereto and marked as Exhibit A.
8. Thereafter, Spotts did various work on the plumbing and septic systems at the
Pocono Village Mobile Home Park, between August of 1994 and the early part of 1995.
Spotts performed his work on the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park in a negligent,
careless, and reckless fashion. Specifically:
a. Spotts and his workers cut off a gravity feed pipe or line which
connected eleven (11) mobile homes to a "dosing tank" without re-connecting

sewage which emanated from those eleven (11) mobile homes was not

dumped into the ground.
b. Spotts and his workers re-filled the hole which they had excavated
to cut off the gravity feed pipe described in sub paragraph a and refilled that
hole without correcting the problem created by their mistake and thus
concealed the problem from Orchard Hills.
c. Spotts failed to advise Orchard Hills or it representatives of the
wrongful action he or his employees had taken in cutting off the gravity feed
pipe.
@ As a direct result of the negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of Spotts,
the sewer system at the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park was rendered ineff~ctive,
incomplete, illegal, and dangerous. The acts of Spotts by cutting off.the gravity feed pipe
and causing the untreated waste from eleilen (11) mobile homes to simply pass into the
ground violated federal and state environmental laws and the ordinances of Pocono
Township in Monroe County and exposed the owners and representatives of Orchard Hills
to criminal and civil penalties and sanctions for such violations.
.
10. Because Spotts refilled the excavation in which Spotts did the defective wort<'

Orchard Hills sold the Pocono Hills Mobile Home Park to a third party purchaser for
$645,000.00.
12. In late 1996, the third party purchaser complained to Orchard Hills about
problems he was experiencing with the plumbing and sewer system at the Pocono Village

All of these expenses were paid by Orchard Hills and Pocono Village as a direct result of
the negligent, reckless. and careless actions of Spotts as described herein above.
14. In addition to the above reimbursements and expenses, Pocono Village and
Orchard Hills incurred other expenses of their own as a result of the negligence,
carelessness, and recklessness of Spotts. Those expenses and losses are:

to the third party purchaser, which sale was later reversed

4. In 1994 Orchard Hills owned a Mobile Home Park situate in Pocono
Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania, which Mobile Home Park was known
variously as "Pocono Village Court" or "Pocono Village Mobile Home Park" and which
was improved with facilities for 35 mobile homes, which facilities were leased to
tenants and which facilities included a septic system to lawfully dispose of sewer
and other wastes on the property.
5. In 1994 and at all other times relevant to this action, Melvin W. Spotts and
Elizabeth B. Spotts were engaged in the business of excavation and plumbing work,
trading as "Mel Spotts Excavating" and held themselves and their business out to
Orchard Hills and its representatives, and to other members of the public, as being
experienced and experts in such work. Melvin W. Spotts operated as an authorized
agent and representative of both Defendants in the operation of the excavating the
plumbing business.
6. During the summer and fall of 1994, Orchard Hills engaged Defendant to
do certain work on the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park. During the process of that
engagement, representatives of Orchard Hills and Defendant took the following
actions:
A. Defendant visited the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park to
inspect the problem; and
B. Defendant determined what work was necessary to correct the
problem and make the Improvements which Orchard Hills requested;
and
C. Defendant met with representatives of Orchard Hills at offices
they maintained at that time at 4740 Delbrook Road in Mechanicsburg,
Pennsylvania, to discuss the work he proposed to do, to explain to
Orchard Hills' representatives how that work would correct the problems
at Pocono Village Mobile Home Park, and to propose payment terms for
the work he was to do.

7. At various meetings held at Orchard Hills' office in Mechanicsburg,
Orchard Hills engaged Defendant to do work on the septic and sewer system at the
Pocono Village Mobile Home Park. The terms of the engagement were that
Defendant would do the work It had verbally described to the representatives of
Orchard Hills In a good and workmanlike manner, In exchange for which Orchard
Hills would pay Defendant Its normal and customary charges, on a time and
material basis, for such work. Although no formal written agreement was prepared
between the parties, Brian Gross, one of the principals In Peifer & Gross, Inc. who
represented Orchard Hills at the meetings with Defendant, prepared a Memorandum
outlining the nature of the work to be done and said Memorandum was signed by
representatives of Orchard Hills and Defendant. A copy of that Memorandum is
attached hereto and marked as Exhibit A.
8. Thereafter, Defendant did various work on the plumbing and septic
systems at the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park, between August of 1994 and the
early part of 1995. Defendant performed his work on the Pocono Village Mobile
Home Park in a negligent, careless, and reckless fashion. Specifically:
a. Defendant cut off a gravity feed pipe or line which connected
eleven (11) mobile homes to a "dosing tank" without re-connecting that
line to any other part of the septic system. As a result of this action,
the sewage which emanated from those eleven (11) mobile homes was
not deposited into the septic syster;n for the mobile home park and was
simply dumped into the ground.
b. Defendant re-filled the hole which it had excavated to cut off
the gravity feed pipe described in sub paragraph a and refilled that hole
without correcting the problem created by their mistake and thus
concealed the problem from Orchard Hills.
c. Defendant failed to advise Orchard Hills or its representatives
of the wrongful action it had taken in cutting off the gravity feed pipe.

9. As a direct result of the negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of
Defendant, the sewer system at the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park was rendered
Ineffective, Incomplete, illegal, and dangerous. The acts of Defendant by cutting
off the gravity feed pipe and causing the untreated waste from eleven (11) mobile
homes to simply pass Into the ground violated federal and state environmental laws
and the ordinances of Pocono Township In Monroe County and exposed the owners
and representatives of Orchard Hills to criminal and civil penalties and sanctions for
such violations.
10. Because Defendant refilled the excavation in which Defendant did the
defective work and failed to report and disclose to Orchard Hills and its
representatives the defective work it had done, Orchard Hills was unaware of the
problem and the violation of law which that problem created.
11. In June of 1996, still unaware of the problem caused by Defendant's
defective work, Orchard Hills sold the Pocono Hills Mobile Home Park to a third party
purchaser for $645,000.00.
12. In late 1996, the third party purchaser complained to Orchard Hills
about problems he was experiencing with the plumbing and sewer system at the
Pocono Village Mobile Home Park. During the Investigation of those problems, by
the third party purchaser and his representatives and by Orchard Hills and its
representatives, the gravity feed pipe which Defendant had improperly cut and
disconnected was uncovered and discovered. Upon discovery of the problem, the
third party purchaser rescinded his purchase of the Pocono Village Mobile Home
ParR, threatened suit against Orchard Hills and Its representatives, and demanded a
refund o(all monies paid by him for the purchase of the Pocono Village Mobile Home
Park and, all expenses incurred by him in the attempts to solve and remedy the
problem caused by Defendant's defective work.
13. Following several months of negotiations with the third party purchaser,
and several months of further investigation into the problem caused by Defendant's

defective work, the principals of Orchard Hills formed a new partnership, Pocono
Village, to re-purchase the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park from the third party
purchaser and negotiated a settlement agreement, on behalf of Orchard Hills and
Pocono Village, with the third party purchaser to pay and reimburse the third party
purchaser his losses and expenses Incurred as a result of the problem at Pocono
Village Mobile Home Park with the plumbing and sewer system. As part of that
agreement and settlement, Orchard Hills and Pocono Village incurred the following
expenses and had to pay the following items:
a. Reimbursement of the third party purchaser's out
of pocket expenses for plumbing repairs incurred in an attempt
to correct the problem $3,185.00
b. Reimbursement of the third party purchaser's
engineering fees incurred in an attempt to solve the problem $2,853.00
c. ReImbursement of the third party purchaser's
attorney's fees .$15.151.00
Total $21,189.00
All of these expenses were paid by Orchard Hills and Pocono Village as a direct
result of the negligent, reckless, and careless actions of Defendant as described
herein above.
14. In addition to the above reimbursements and expenses, Pocono Village
and Orchard Hills Incurred other expense,s of their own as a result of the negligence,
carelessness, and recklessness of Defendant. Those expenses and losses are:
a. Settlement costs at Orchard Hills' original
sale to the third party purchaser, which sale was later
reversed $16,675.00
b. Fees paid to All State Septic Systems to
pump sewerage from the Pocono Village Mobile Home
Park and to make certain repairs to the system to

pump sewerage from the Pocono Village Mobile Home
Park and to make certain repairs to the system to
correct the problem caused by Defendant's Improper
actions $14,692.00
c. Engineering and related professional fees and
expenses to Identify and correct the problem caused by
Defendant's improper work $11,864.00
d. Attorney's fees _$7.736.00
TOTAL $50,967.00
All of these expenses and losses were caused to the Plaintiffs as a direct result of
the negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of Defendant.
15. In addition to the damages and losses described in the foregoing two
paragraphs, the PlaIntiffs Incurred other expenses and losses, including the
following:
a. The interruption of the activities and business effort of Its
owner, emplgyees, and representatives to address and resolve the
problem caused by Defendant's defective work.
b. Public scorn, approbation and humiliation resulting from their
owning and operating a mobile home park with a defective and Illegal
septic and plumbing system.
c. The loss of the bargain they enjoyed from the sale of the
mobile home park to the third party purchaser, which sale had to be set
aside and reversed upon the discovery of the conditions and problems
caused by Defendant's defective and improper work.
The above damages are not liquidated. Plaintiffs believe that they have suffered
damages, as a result of these items, in a sum in excess of $25,000.00.
16. All of the damages listed above are a direct result of the negligence,
carelessness, and recklessness of the Defendant. All of these damages have been

Complaint in or about July, 1999. (the "Complaint" and "Amended Complaint"") Copies of the
Complaints are attached hereto as Exhibit "B".
19. The Complaints allege that Spotts pertormed his work at the Park in a negligent

20. In particular, the Amended Complaint alleges that Spotts "cut 01'1' a gravity feed pipe
or line which connected eleven (II) mobile homes to a "dosing tan"" without reconnecting thaI line
to any other part of the septic system. As a result of this action, the sewage which emanalt:d from

and was simply dumped into the ground". Amended Complaint. paragraph ~La., Exhibit "B" hereto.
21. The Amended Complaint further alleges that Spotts acts "causcd the untreated waste

24. The Penn National policies provide coverage for sums Spotts is kgally obligated to
pay on account of "'property damage", as defined in the policies, which is not otherwise excluded.
See General Liability Coverage Form, attached hereto as Exhibit "'Coo.
25. The Penn National policies exclude from coverage "'property damage" to real property
on which the Spotts is performing operations, or personal property that must be "restored. repaired
or replaced" because Spotts' work was incorrectly performed on it (See CG 000 I 0 I 96. Section I.
Coverage A.2.J(5), 2.J(6), at 3). The Penn National policies also exclude coverage for "property
damage" to Spotts' "work" as defined in the policies. (See CG 00 0 I 0 I 'Hl, Section I.. Coverage
A.2.l, at 4).
26. The claims asserted in the Complaint and Amended Complaint Iidl within the ambit
of the exclusions cited in the preceding paragraph and therefore arc not covered under the Penn
National policies.

provides that the "'property damage" coverage does not apply to claims which would not have
occurred in whole or in part but for the discharge, dispersal, scepagc. migration. release or escape of
"pollutants". "Pollutants" means any solid, liquid, gaseous, or thermal irritant or contaminant
including smoke, vapor, soot, fumes, acid, alkali, chemicals and waste. (See CO 114901 96)

29. An actual controversy exists between thc parties concerning the issuc of whether
Spotts is entitled to coverage under the policies for the claims asserted in the Complaint and Amended
Complaint.

determined.
WHEREFORE, Pennsylvania National Mutual Casualty Insurance Company demands

3. The Defendant, Mel Spotts, is an adult individual who, to the best of Plaintiffs'
knowledge, resides or maintains an office at 45 Martin Street in East Earl, Pennsylvania.
4. In 1994 Orchard Hills owned a Mobile Home Park situate in Pocono Town~hip,
.,':.
Monroe County, Pennsylvania, which Mobile Home Park was known variously as "Pocono
Village Court" or "Pocono Village Mobile Home Park" and which was improved with
facilities for 32 mobile homes, which facilities were leased to tenants and which facilities
included a septic system to lawfully dispose of sewer and other wastes on the property.
5. In 1994 and at all other times relevant to this action, Defendant was engaged in
the business of excavation and plumbing work and held himself out to Orchard Hills and its
representatives, and to various other members of the public, as an expert in such work.
6. During the summer and fall of 1994, Orchard Hills engaged Defendant Spotts to
do certain work on the Pocono Village Mobile ~ome Park. During the process of that
engagement, representatives of Orchard Hills and Spotts took the following actions:
a. Spotts visited the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park to inspect the
problem; and
b. Spotts determined what work was necessary to correct the problem
and make the improvements which Orchard Hills requested; and
c. Spotts met with representatives of Orchard Hills at offices they
maintained at that time at 4740 Delbrook Road in Mechanicsburg,
Pennsylvania, to discuss the work he proposed to do, to explain to Orchard

7. At various meetings held at Orchard Hills' office in Mechanicsburg, Orchard Hills
Village Mobile Home Park, and to propose payment terms for the work he
was to do.
engaged Spotts to do work on the septic and sewer system at the Pocono Village Mobile
Home Park. The terms of the engagement were that Spotts would do the work he had
verbally described to the representatives of Orchard Hills in a good and workmanlike
manner, in exchange for which Orchard Hills would pay Spotts his normal and customary
charges, on a time and material basis, for such work. Although no formal written
agreement was prepared between the parties, Brian Gross, one of the principals in Peifer
& Gross, Inc. who represented Orchard Hills at the meetings with Spotts, prepared a
Memorandum outlining the nature of the work to be done and said Memorandum was
signed by representatives of Orchard Hills and by Spotts. A copy of that Memf>randum is
attached hereto and marked as Exhibit A.
8. Thereafter, Spotts did various work on the plumbing and septic systems at the
Pocono Village Mobile Home Park, between August of 1994 and the early part of 1995.
Spotts performed his work on the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park in a negligent,
careless, and reckless fashion. Specifically:
a. Spotts and his workers cut off a gravity feed pipe or line which
connected eleven (11) mobile homes to a "dosing tank" without re-connecting
. - I

that line to any other part of the septic system. As a result of this action, the
sewage which emanated from those eleven (11) mobile homes was not

. 'depo~if!3c1,i~t6 the septic system for the mobile home park and was simply
,':," "'::',' ''':'':,-',,\:{,;,;':':,\::',.'i,:::,,',,~:')''::'' ,. . ,,',
dumped into the ground.
b. Spotts and his workers re-filled the hole which they had excavated
to cut off the gravity feed pipe described in sub paragraph a and refilled that
hole without correcting the problem created by their mistake and thus
concealed the problem from Orchard Hills.
c. Spotts failed to advise Orchard Hills or it representatives of the
wrongful action he or his employees had taken in cutting off the gravity feed
pipe.
@l As a direct result of the negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of Spotts,
the sewer system at the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park was rendered ineff~ctive,
incomplete, illegal, and dangerous. The acts of Spotts by cutting off.the gravity feed pipe
and causing the untreated waste from eleven (11) mobile homes to simply pass into the
ground violated federal and state environmental laws and the ordinances of Pocono
Township in Monroe County and exposed the owners and representatives of Orchard Hills
to criminal and civil penalties and sanctions for such violations.
10. Because Spotts refilled the excavation in which Spotts did the defective wot\<.

and failed to report and disclose to Orchard Hills and its representatives the defective

Orch~rd Hiil~ sold the Pocono Hills Mobile Home Park to a third party purchaser for I
,
$645,000.00.
12, In late 1996, the third party purchaser complained to Orchard Hills about
problems he was experiencing with the plumbing and sewer system at the Pocono Village
Mobile Home Park. During the investigation of those problems, by the third party i
purchaser and his representatives and by Orchard Hills and its repre~entatives, the gravity I
I
feed pipe which Spotts had improperly cut and disconnected was uncovered and I
I
discovered. Upon discovery of the problem, the third party purchaser rescinded his I
purchase of the Pocono Vlllage Mobile Home Park, 1hrealened sun against Orchard Hili. I
and its representatives, and demanded a refund of all monies paid by hi~ for toe purchase I
of the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park and all expenses incurred by him in the attempts I
to solve and remedy the problem caused by Spotts' defective work.
13. Following several months of negotiations with the third party purchaser, and
several months of further investigation into the problem caused by Spotts' defective work,
the principals of Orchard Hills formed a new partnership, Pocono Village, to re-purchas.e
the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park from the third party purchaser and negotiated a.,'

Total
All of these expenses were paid by Orchard Hills and Pocono Village as a direct result of
the negligent, reckless, and careless actions of Spotts as described herein above.
14. In addition to the above reimbursements and expenses, Pocono Village and
Orchard Hills incurred other expenses of their own as a result of the negligence,
carelessness, and recklessness of Spotts. Those expenses and losses are:
a. Settlement costs at Orchard Hills' original sale
to the third party purchaser, which sale was later reversed
b. Fees paid to All State Septic Systems to pump

All of these expenses and losses were caused to the Plaintiffs as a direct result of the
negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of Spotts.
15. In addition to the damages and losses described in the foregoing two
paragraphs, the Plaintiffs incurred other expenses and losses, including the following:
a. The interruption of the activities and business effort of its owner.,
employees, and representatives to address and resolve the problem caused
by Spotts' defective work.
b. Public scorn, approbation and humiliation resulting from their
owning and operating a mobile home park with a defective and illegal septic
and plumbing system.

4. In 1994 Orchard Hills owned a Mobile Home Park situate in Pocono
Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania, which Mobile Home Park was known
variously as "Pocono Village Court" or "Pocono Village Mobile Home Park" and which
was Improved with facilities for 35 mobile homes, which facilities were leased to
tenants and which facilities included a septic system to lawfully dispose of sewer
and other wastes on the property.
5. In 1994 and at all other times relevant to this action, Melvin W. Spotts and
Elizabeth B. Spotts were engaged In the business of excavation and plumbing work,
trading as "Mel Spotts Excavating" and held themselves and their business out to
Orchard Hills and Its representatives, and to other members of the public, as being
experienced and experts In such work. Melvin W. Spotts operated as an authorized
agent and representative of both Defendants in the operation of the excavating the
plumbing business.
6. During the summer and fall of 1994, Orchard Hills engaged Defendant to
do certain work on the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park. During the process of that
engagement, representatives of Orchard Hills and Defendant took the following
actions:
A. Defendant visited the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park to
inspect the problem; and
B. Defendant determined what work was necessary to correct the
problem and make the improvements which Orchard Hills requested;
and
C. Defendant met with representatives of Orchard Hills at offices
they maintained at that time at 4740 Delbrook Road In Mechanicsburg,
Pennsylvania, to discuss the work he proposed to do, to explain to
Orchard Hills' representatives how that work would correct the problems
at Pocono Village Mobile Home Park, and to propose payment terms for
the work he was to do.

7. At various meetings held at Orchard Hills' office in Mechanicsburg,
Orchard Hills engaged Defendant to do work on the septic and sewer system at the
Pocono Village Mobile Home Park. The terms of the engagement were that
Defendant would do the work It had verbally described to the representatives of
Orchard Hills in a good and workmanlike manner, In exchange for which Orchard
Hills would pay Defendant Its normal and customary charges, on a time and
material basis, for such work. Although no formal written agreement was prepared
between the parties, Brian Gross, one of the principals In Peifer & Gross, Inc. who
represented Orchard Hills at the meetings with Defendant, prepared a Memorandum
outlining the nature of the work to be done and said Memorandum was signed by
representatives of Orchard Hills and Defendant. A copy of that Memorandum is
attached hereto and marked as Exhibit A.
8. Thereafter, Defendant did various work on the plumbing and septic
systems at the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park, between August of 1994 and the
early part of 1995. Defendant performed his work on the Pocono Village Mobile
Home Park In a negligent, careless, and reckless fashion. Specifically:
a. Defendant cut off a gravity feed pipe or line which connected
eleven (11) mobile homes to a "dosing tank" without re-connectlng that
line to any other part of the septic system. As a result of this action,
the sewage which emanated from those eleven (11) mobile homes was
not deposited into the septic syster;n for the mobile home park and was
simply dumped into the ground.
b. Defendant re-filled the hole which It had excavated to cut off
the gravity feed pipe described In sub paragraph a and refilled that hole
without correcting the problem created by their mistake and thus
concealed the problem from Orchard Hills.
c. Defendant failed to advise Orchard Hills or its representatives
of the wrongful action it had taken in cutting off the gravity feed pipe.
,,"\-,~~_~~"'ll'''''Pl'_

. 41:

9. As a direct result of the negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of
Defendant, the sewer system at the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park was rendered
Ineffective, Incomplete, illegal, and dangerous. The acts of Defendant by cutting
off the gravity feed pipe and causing the untreated waste from eleven (11) mobile
homes to simply pass Into the ground violated federal and state environmental laws
and the ordinances of Pocono Township In Monroe County and exposed the owners
and representatives of Orchard Hills to criminal and civil penalties and sanctions for
such violations.
10. Because Defendant refilled the excavation in which Defendant did the
defective work and failed to report and disclose to Orchard Hills and Its
representatives the defective work it had done, Orchard Hills was unaware of the
problem and the violation of law which that problem created.
11. In June of 1996, still unaware of the problem caused by Defendant's
defective work, Orchard Hills sold the Pocono Hills Mobile Home Park to a third party
purchaser for $645,000.00.
12. In late 1996, the third party purchaser complained to Orchard Hills
about problems he was experiencing with the plumbing and sewer system at the
Pocono Village Mobile Home Park. During the investigation of those problems, by
the third party purchaser and his representatives and by Orchard Hills and its
representatives, the gravity feed pipe which Defendant had improperly cut and
disconnected was uncovered and discovered. Upon discovery of the problem, the
third party purchaser rescinded his purchase of the Pocono Village Mobile Home
ParR, threatened suit against Orchard Hills and its representatives, and demanded a
refund of all monies paid by him for the purchase of the Pocono Village Mobile Home
Park and all expenses incurred by him in the attempts to solve and remedy the
problem caused by Defendant's defective work.
13. Following several months of negotiations with the third party purchaser,
and several months of further investigation into the problem caused by Defendant's
'kJ"'~"'''''i>_~":,,,~ ""!"'_

defective work, the principals of Orchard Hills formed a new partnership, Pocono
Village, to re-purchase the Pocono Village Mobile Home Park from the third party
purchaser and negotiated a settlement agreement, on behalf of Orchard Hills and
Pocono Village, with the third party purchaser to pay and reimburse the third party
purchaser his losses and expenses Incurred as a result of the problem at Pocono
Village Mobile Home Park with the plumbing and sewer system. As part of that
agreement and settlement, Orchard Hills and Pocono Village incurred the following
expenses and had to pay the following items:
a. Reimbursement of the third party purchaser's out
of pocket expenses for plumbing repairs incurred in an attempt
to correct the problem $3,185.00
b. Reimbursement of the third party purchaser's
engineering fees incurred in an attempt to solve the problem $2,853.00
c. Reimbursement of the third party purchaser's
attorney's fees 115,151.00
Total $21,189.00
All of these expenses were paid by Orchard Hills and Pocono Village as a direct
result of the negligent, reckless, and careless actions of Defendant as described
herein above.
14. In addition to the above reimbursements and expenses, Pocono Village
and Orchard Hills Incurred other expense,s of their own as a result of the negligence,
carelessness, and recklessness of Defendant. Those expenses and losses are:
a. Settlement costs at Orchard Hills' original
sale to the third party purchaser, which sale was later
reversed $16,675.00
b. Fees paid to All State Septic Systems to
pump sewerage from the Pocono Village Mobile Home
Park and to make certain repairs to the system to

$14,692.00
c. Engineering and related professional fees and
expenses to Identify and correct the problem caused by
Defendant's improper work $11,864.00
d. Attorney's fees _$7.736.00
TOTAL $50,967.00
All of these expenses and losses were caused to the Plaintiffs as a direct result of
the negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of Defendant.
15. In addition to the damages and losses described in the foregoing two
paragraphs, the Plaintiffs Incurred other expenses and losses, including the
following:
a. The Interruption of the activities and business effort of Its
owner, employees, and representatives to address and resolve the
problem caused by Defendant's defective work.
b. Public scorn, approbation and humiliation resulting from their
owning and operating a mobile home park with a defective and illegal
septic and plumbing system.
c. The loss of the bargain they enjoyed from the sale of the
mobile home park to the third party purchaser, which sale had to be set
aside and reversed upon the discovery of the conditions and problems
caused by Defendant's defective and improper work.
The above damages are not liquidated. Plaintiffs believe that they have suffered
damages, as a result of these items, in a sum in excess of $25,000.00.
16. All of the damages listed above are a direct result of the negligence,
carelessness, and recklessness of the Defendant. All of these damages have been

No person or organization has a right under this
Coverage Part:
I
a. To join us es a party or otherwise bring us Into
a "suit" asking for damages from an Insured; or
b. To sue us on this Coverage Part unless all of
Its terms have lreen fully complied with.
A person or organization may sue us to recover
on an agreed settlement or on a final judgment
against an Insured obtained after an actual trial;
but we will not be liable for damages that are not
payable under the terms of this Coverage Part or
that are In excess of the applicable limit of Insur-
ance. An agreed settlement means a settlement
and release of liability signed by us, the Insured
and the claimant or the claimant's lagal represen-
tative.
4. Other Insurance
If other valid and collectible Insurance Is available
to the Insured for a loss we cover under Cover-
ages A or B of this Coverage Part, our obligations
are limited as follows:
a. Primary Insurance
This insurance Is primary except when b. be-
low applies. If this Insurance Is primary, our
obligations are not affected unless any of the
other Insurance Is also primary. Then, we will
share with all that other Insurance by the
method described in c. below.
b, Excess Insurance
This Insurance Is excess over any of the other
insurance, whether primary, excess, COntingent
or on any other basiS:
(1) That Is Fire, Extended Coverage. Bullde,..
Risk, Installation Risk or similar COverage
for "your work";
(2) That Is Fire Insurance for premises rented '"
to you or temporarily occupied by you w"h
permission of the owner; or
(3) If the loss arises out of the maintenance or
use of aircraft, "autos" or watercraft to the
extent not subject to Exclusion g. of Cov-
erage A (Section I).
When this Insurance Is excess, we will have no
duty under Coverages A or B to defend the In-
sured against any "suit" If any other Insurer has
a duty to defend the Insured against that "su"",
If no other Insurer defends, we will undertake
to do so. but we will be entitled to the Insured'1
rights against all those other Insurers,
When this Insurance Is excess over other In-
surance. we will pay only our share of the
amount of the loss, If any, that exceeds the
sum of:
(1) The total amount that all such other Insur-
ance would pay for the loss In the absence
of this Insurance; and
(2) The total of all deductible and self-insured
amounts under all that other Insurance.
We will share the remaining loss. if any, with
any other Insurance that Is not described In this
Excess Insurance provision and was not
bought specifically to apply In excess of the
limits of Insurance shown In the Declarations
of this Coverage Part.
c. Method of Sharing
If all of the other Insurance permits contribu-
tion by equal shares, we will follow this method
also. Under this approach each Insurer con-
tributes equal amounts until It has paid Its ap-
plicable limit of Insurance or none of the loss
remains, whichever comes first.
If any of the other Insurance does not permit
contribution by equal shares, we will contribute
by limits. Under this method, each Insurer's
share Is based on the ratio of Its applicable
limit of Insurance to the total applicable limits
of Insurance of all Insurers.

collectively as "Spotts") in the Court of Common Pleas of
Cumberland County (No.: 97-4977) by co-Defendants, Orchard Hills

Improper Venue.
5. Paragraphs 1 through 4 are incorporated herein by
reference as though fully set forth below at length.

objection may be filed on the grounds of improper venue.
7. Pa.R.C.P. No. 1006 (Venue), in pertinent part, states:
"(a) ..an action against an individual may be
brought in and only in a county in which the
individual may be served or in which the cause of
action arose or where a transaction or occurrence
took place out of which the cause of action arose
or in any other county authorized by law."

other relationship with Defendant, Elizabeth Spotts, to establish
venue in Cumberland County.
19. Penn National has failed to allege a cause of action
and any relief in this declaratory action against Orchard Hills
Associates and Pocono Village Associates and, therefore, venue is
not appropriate under Pa.R.C.P. No. 1006(c).
20. Monroe County, Pennsylvania is the location of the
alleged occurrence which gave rise to the underlying cause of
action against Spotts by co-Defendants, Orchard Hills Associates
and Pocono Village Associates.

the matter transferred to Lancaster County with all costs and
fees of transfer to be paid by Pennsylvania National Mutual

insufficient and should be dismissed.

Complaint, in part, requests: "For such other and further relief
this Court may deem just and proper, including attorneys' fees
and costs of suit."
28. The requested relief is improper and inappropriate
since no specific statute or Rule of Court provides for such
relief for a "declaratory judgment" action or other common law
relief for the purported claims raised in Count I and Count II of
the Complaint.
29. The prayer for relief in Count II of the Complaint, in
part, requests: "An Order directing Spotts to reimburse Penn
National for all fees and costs incurred by Penn National in
defending Spotts against the claims asserted in the Complaint and
Amended Complaint. . ."

since no specific statute or Rule of Court provides for such
relief in a declaratory judgment action.

legal basis that the requested relief is permitted.

ambit of the exclusions cited in the preceding paragraph and
therefore are not covered under the Penn National policies".
34. Penn National has failed to allege facts with
sufficient particularity to enable Spotts to prepare and assert

asserted in the Complaint and Amended Complaint fall within the
ambit of the Total Pollution Exclusion and therefore there is no
coverage for these claims under the Penn National policies".

sufficient particularity to enable Spotts to prepare and assert
defenses to the allegations contained in Paragraph 28.
